GOING:

Race 2 1400m

Track:      

Without an obvious leader, it may be left to Krichashchii, Combat Vela and Petit Or to control the tempo. KRICHASHCHII (1) is a two-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and finished fifth over 800m at this track. Improvement to come and this is his chance to break through. SUPPIN GIRL (6) failed to figure last time over 1400m at this track when sixth. Has enough ability to test this field. HUDHUD (2) missed the placings last start when ninth over 800m at this track. Well placed and in the mix. FESTIVE FREE (8) has been out of the money recently including last start when seventh over 800m at this track two weeks ago. Can make amends in this suitable race.
